Dr Charlotte Stone sees what others do not.
An expert in criminal pathology, Charlie regularly sits face-to-face with madmen. She’s been obsessed with learning what makes human monsters commit terrible crimes since she was sixteen, when a man butchered the family of her best friend Holly, then left the girl’s body on a seaside boardwalk one week later.
Charlie kept quiet about her eerie postmortem visions of Holly and her mother. And even years later, knowing it might undermine her credibility as a psychological expert, she tells no one about the visits she gets from the spirit world.
Now all-too-handsome FBI agent Tony Bartoli suspects the Boardwalk Killer is back. A teenage girl is missing, her family slaughtered. With time running short for the innocent girl, Bartoli turns to the only person who could stop this vicious murderer.
But Dr. Charlotte Stone sees what others do not. And she sees the Boardwalk Killer coming for her.
